In any social media, there will be always spammer. And the culture need to change. One of my suggestion was to the guys who are at the top, should create a trend to upbring good content, by upvoting newer posts which have quality.
I am not a creative person, and so far I have not been able to post great content. So I have decided to invest and also working to bring people who are creative and promote them. I think, at least this way, I can add values to the platform.
For a little while #waronspam was a thing. To help try and deal with spam and to show people how to do things better.
There are a couple of tags out there just created to help people get noticed. Issue is those get spammed as well.
People even use them when it’s not for them. This site just requires good old fashion networking to get seen. Even the more open places for that get flooded so things get missed.
There are a few curtail groups that go around looking for good content to promote and you often see some of vets taking people under their wing and helping get their content more visible.
There is just an amazing amount of wonderful content out there. Takes a while to get noticed. Sometimes things work out other times not.
Thanks for commenting!!!
Good ideas, you just have to keep trying and learning and seeing what works.
My advice: Learn how to format the pots, with just 3-4 basic things learning the Markdown tricks, for formatting -- follow the link in your "compose" window area -- where it says Markdown.
It will help you learn tricks quickly.
